Wrestling tourney to be held here
this week-end, to see the crowning
of the new champs and watch them

By ART CARSTENS
Promptly at 10:30 a.m. today 100
Conference swimmers will begin their
quest for 1934 Big Ten titles in the
Iowa University pool at Iowa City.
By 10:00 p.m. this year's winner,
probably Michigan for the fourth
consecutive time, will have been ac-
claimed and the individual title win-
ners will already be looking forward
to the National Intercollegiates at
Ohio State next week.
Dispatches from Iowa City state
that the Wolverine team of 11 cham-
p ions or near-champions arrived
there yesterday in time to hold a
long workout in the 150 foot pool
to be the scene of today's competi-
tion. The Michigan men, as well as
those from other Big Ten schools,
found considerable difficulty in ac-
cstoming themselves to the longer
distances between turns.
Records Comparatively Safe
This lack of sufficient time to be-
come familiar with the big pool
makes it probable that few record
breaking performances will be turn-
ed inalthough experts are willing
to concede that the group of stars
gathered in Iowa City today could
probably break at least five out of
the eight existing Big Ten marks in
a 75 foot natatorium.
The long pool may also give the
Hawkeyes, swimming at home, an
edge over the Illini and Northwest-
ern althoughethe latter two are sup-
posed to fight for the runner-up
position.
Michigan, with powerful com-
petitors in every event and assur-
ance of at least half the first
places, was a hands down favorite
among the title aspirants as they
gathered last night
We herewith reproduce a list of
the probable point winners as com-
piled by comparative times turned
in in dual meets this year:

Bo McMillan Greeted By
Indiana Student Body
"I'm not optimistic but I am con-
fident," said A. N. (Bo) McMillan
at a reception given to celebrate his
appointment as head football coach
at the University of Indiana.
McMillan stressed the fact that
he will do his best to turn out win-
ning teams, but that he is even more
interested in building men of char-
acter. He concluded his talk by mak-
ing an appeal to the student body to;
support their team, saying that ar
great team would be impossible with-i

out their backing.
ALFONSE IS 'NATURAL' ICEMAN
Julius Alfonse, hard-driving soph-
omore halfback, is the first varsity
gridder the University of Minnesota
has had who works as an iceman in
the summer. But he's a real one,
having worked in and for his father's
ice plant at Cumberland, Wis., since

Above are pictured some of the swimmers who will be in the limelight in the Big Ten meet at Iowa City
today, in which the University of Michigan swimmers are favored to run off with their fourth consecutive
title. Bela carries Ohio State's hopes in the backstroke; Rollinger is a dash star from Northwestern; Drys-
dale is expected to set a new record for Michigan in the backstroke; Flachmann is an outstanding favorite
in the 100-yard dash, and Bushy is one of the best di vers on the low board in the Conference, with the
exception of Dick Degener.

son, athletic business manager an-
nounced yesterday.
Tickets will be available at the
main desk in the Union and in the
Athletic Administration Building,
Ferry Field.
Season tickets for the two days

'There will be no reserved seats.
Tillotson announced that many
reservations had already been re-
ceived and he looks for a sell-out be-
fore the end of the week.
At the office of Phil Pack, who is
receiving the entries, it was an-
nounced that over 75 entries had
been received, chiefly from western
schools. It was explained that east-
'erin schools are delaying to bsend
their entries until after the Eastern
Intercollegiates being held this week-
end at Penn State.

Diek Joslin On
Reserve Team
in Cage Drills
Cappon Is Experimenting
With Squad To Discover
A Winning Combination
Dick Joslin has been demoted to
the second team; three freshmen:
Ed Solomon, Earl Meyers, and Mat
Patanelli are working into the first
team combination; and Chelse To-
magno is jumpino ceniter -- that's
the spring basketball situation as
it stands today at the end of two
weeks of practice.
Becausernearly all Varsitycalibre
cagers were available for practice,
Coach "Cappy" Cappon went into the
spring session with the idea of ex-
perimenting on a court line-up for
next year. And thus far he seems
to be accomplishing his aim.
During the winter campaign Dick
Joslin came out of the second string
squad, when Jablonski was declared
=ineligible for the second semester,
to provide thescoring spark on a
team thatawas sorely in need of a
scoring spark, but now he is shunted
back among the reserves Cappon
feels that Joslin needs to improve
his floorsnwork anei especially his
passing, before he can make a serious
bid for a permanent position on the
1934-35 team.
Tomagno Can Jump
Cappon has discovered that Chelse
Tomagno can jump higher than any-
body else on the squad, including
Joslin and Jablonski, hence, as he
is a far better ball handler than
either one of these pivot men, To-
magno has been working at the cen-
ter post. As Tomagno is adept at
trick shots under the basket, there
is a possibility that his scoring po-'
tentialities would be more fully real-
ized at this position.
The forward line has been taking
on height. Jablonski has been work-
ing regularly at forward along with
two other six-footers, Solomon and
Meyers, who will be sophomores next
year.
The old Tomagno-Petoskey com-
bination in the back court has dis-
appeared entirely. Captain-Elect Al
Plurmmer and Mat Patanelli are the
new duo. Plummer is a good ball
handler and a good shot. At this
position he should be able to give
the Michigan squad what is needed
last season, a Long Tom artist. His
mate, Mat Patanelli, has arrived. He
is without a doubt ready for the
Varsity next year, according to his
coach.
Cappon has had four different
teams working on the Intramural
courts, practicing plays and scrim-
maging. Those who are on the sec-
ond team at present, besides Joslin
at forward, are Castle, freshman, at
center; Rudness at forward; and
Evans and Powell, guards

What is behind the phenomenal
success which Coach Ed S. Galagher
has had with his wrestlers at Okla-
homa A. and M.?
The Cowboys, eight of whom will
appear next week in Ann Arbor for
the National Intercollegiate wrestling
meet with their piaturesqueten-gal-
lon hats and all, have built up one
of the outstanding records in the
history of collegiate wrestling.
In fifteen years the 'Punchers have
.net just four defeats in dual com-
petition and until their streak was
;topped two years ago by the Uni-
rersity of Oklahoma, had run up 73
straight victories. They are also
potential national champions, this
yeas adefending the mythical title
won last season.
Excerpts of a letter from Galagher
;o Coach Keen of Michigan, a for-
.ner disciple of the Cowboy mentor
.nay serve to explain some of those
successes:
"To show youathe possibilitiestof
wrestling at A. and M., I have ten
star freshmen enrolled here, nearly
Al State Champions or runners-up.
"I have two complete teams on my
VTarsity squad this year and lose one
ay graduation this year, which leaves
:ne with 24 to 32 on my team rang-
.ng from first to fourth rate and 60
mnore freshmen to back them up,
making me approximately 110 men
for my squad next year and at least
25 of them with one to four years
(College) experience."
Some further remarks by Mr. Gal-
agher are more enlightening.
Over 100 high schools in Okla-
homa sponsor teams, and the state
meet for high schools is divided intc
Lour sections. Most of those com-
peting in the state high school meets
have wrestled in junior high schools,
and when they come to A. and M.
many have had five or six previous
years -of previous experience, so that
members of my squads have had as
much as ten years of experience with
organized training "
Galagher adds that his present
squad is one of the strongest which
he has ever had, and that a few years
ago they would have "cleaned up" it
state competition. This year, how-
ever, competition has become mucb
harder, and the state now boasts at
for another week, then the spring
session will be over. And Cappon will
know pretty well what he can do
with next year's material.

least s e v e n high-class wrestling
teams, including A. and M., Univer-
sity of Oklahoma, Central State.
Southwestern State and Northeastern
State Normals, all of which will send
teams here fortthe national meet.
The interest which, is shown in
wrestling throughout the state is il-
lustrated in the' recent Cowboy-
Southwestern match 'for which 3,300
seats were sold over a week in ad-
vance.
Perhaps the explanation of the
Oklahoma, successes, then, is that
they just go for wrestling in the Pan-
handle State..
Cambridge Is
Favored Over
Oxford Eight
Half Million Britons Will
Witness Eighty-Sixth An-
nual Crew Race
LONDON, March 16- () - The
first of Britain's great sporting clas-
sics of the season, the Oxford-Cam-
bridge boat race, will be rowed in
the Thames tomorrow for the 86th
time since 1829.
A half million Britons of every
class -perhaps a" million, for no one
ever has attempted to count them-
will line the banks of the winding
old stream to watch this spectacle,
which ranks in sporting importance
with the Grand National and the
"Darby."
It hasn't been much of a race for
10 years now and every sign points
to another virtual walkaway for the
Light Blues of Cambridge. The Can-
tabs already have shattered all rec-
ords for consecutive victories in this
ancient rivalry with 10 in a row. Ox-
ford, whose shell hasn't been first
across the finish line since 1923,
twice won nine races in succession.
These two streaks stood as the record
until Cambridge equalled it in 1932
and broke it with a one-sided vic-
tory a year ago.
On the basis of time trials, Cam-
bridge seems several lengths faster
than the Dark Blues. Cambridge
has been clocked for the full course
of 4% miles on a flood tide in 19:31.
Oxford was timed in 19:43 on an ebb
tide and seemed "all out" at the
finish.

Remarkable Success Of Cowboy
Wrestlers Due To Experience

By ROLAND L. MARTIN
When Eddie Lowrey, coach of Var-
sity and freshman hockey, made the
statement almost a month ago that
he had hopes of "getting at least
three hockey players" from this year's
yearling squad, he must have had in
mind these three: Vic Heyliger, of
Concord, Mass.; Dick Berryman, a
product of Cass Tech in Detroit; and
Jack Merrill, also of Detroit.
This trio of freshman pucksters,
especially Heyliger and Berryman,
are outstandin'g among the group of
yearlings that has been working with
the remnants of this year's Varsity
during the past two weeks.
Replacements Needed
Coach Lowrey has been working
with the material for next year's
Varsity since the final games of the
season against Michigan Tech with
the hope of getting an idea of whom
he will use to fill the positions which
will be left vacant by the graduation
of George David, Avon Artz, Ted
Chapman, Harold Sindles and Tom-
my Stewart.
Last night, after the final session
of the spring practice, one could
predict with a measure of certainty
that the Wolverine lineup next sea-
son will be composed of Co-Capt.
Johnny Jewell, goalie, Don MacCol-
lum and Larry David, defensemen,
and Co-Capt. Johnny Sherf, Hey-
liger and Berryman, forwards.
Sherf, Berryman and Heyliger will
make a forward combination that
will give any college team in the mid-
west considerable trouble. Sherf is
a threat on every occasion, either!
going down with a passing attack
or flashing through the opposing de-
fense on a solo dash. The addition
of the newcomers gives Lowrey a
front line that is fast, passes ac-
curately, shoots well, and plays smart
hockey.
H-eyliger Is Outstanding
Heyliger has a slight edge over his
running mate, Berryman, in ability.

Sport Program
Plans For Open House
Next Week Progressing;
Hockey Play-Off Today
The annual All-Campus foul shoot-
ing contest is being held at the In-
tramural Building and will continue
until March 31. This event is open
to any student, and entry may be
made at any time. Each contestant
attempts 100 shots at his own con-
venience. The entrant must have
a scorer checking up on the com-
plete round.
Last year Milton Eskowitz put in
83 shots to win over 300 entries The
all time record of 82 successful at-
tempts was made by Muskowitz in
1930.
Match Planned
Plans are also underway for a
match between Phi Beta Delta, Fra-
ternity foul shooting title holders,
and the Blue Raiders, Independent
winners. At the present time Intra-
mural officials plan to have the con-
test at the annual Open House next
week.
Entry may be made for the yearly
"21" tournament which will begin
next week. This event allows each
contestant long and short shots, longs
scoring two points and shorts one.
It will probable last two weeks.
Hockey Play-off Today
The play-off between the Chi Psi's
and the Lambda Chi Alpha's for the
Interfraternity H o c k e y champion-
ship which must be played as a re-
sult of their scoreless four overtime
tie will be run off at 1:30 this after-
noon at the Coliseum.

He is fast, a hard shot, and one of
the smartest stick-handlers that
Michigan has ever had. Opposing
forward lines will have plenty of
trouble next year in trying to get past
the red line with Heyliger in there
stealing the puck with his stick be-
fore the attack can get started. In
practice, Coach Lowrey is the only
player who is able to get the puck
by this wing with any consistency.
Berryman, who is expected to fill
Artz's center position, should develop
into the playmaker for the Wolve-
rines. He is a beautiful skater, is
adept at dribbling the puck through
the defense, is an accurate passer,
and is a hard shot. He consistently
follows the play on attack and many
of his goals in practice have been
scored as the result of following in,
catching the puck on the rebound
and driving it into the net.
Merrill Lacks Size
Merrill, the midget of the yearling
forwards, is characterized by Lowrey
as "the smartest hockey player of the
bunch." The Detroit youngster stars
especially as a playmaker and a poke-
checker, but he is handicapped by his
size. A little more weight and speed,
and Jack would be a certain regular
next year.
The outstanding defensemen on
the yearling squad are Reed Low,
Buffalo, John Connolly, New Ro-
chelle, N.Y., and E. Sullivan, Jamaica,
N.Y. Henry Herkner, E. Cleveland, is
also a capable defenseman but is not
yet of Varsity calibre.
Bill and Ed Chase, the Grosse
Pointe brothers who are so much
alike that even their teammates can-
not distinguish between them, are in-
cluded in the group of eight or nine
that Lowrey has weeded out of the
original squad of 60 as the best
hockey material. They work either at
defense or in the forward line.
Don Stewart and Curt Matthews,
both of Birmingham, are candidates
for the goalie position to replace Co-
Capt. Jewell after next season.
IGNORANCE WAS BLISS
Before the Navy game of 1924,
Frank Murray, Marquette football
coach, ordered his players not to
read the newspapers for two weeks.
Marquette won 21 to 3.
